The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Athens 2026, Spyridon Karydas crossed the line in 1:08:35: 74th of 616 men, faster than 88% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:46 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:02 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 5:22, was faster than 91% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Athens 2026 and Barcelona 2026 were 1:47 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
